DOWNLOAD EBOOKAri’s new book is the culmination of a lifetime of learning and thirty four years in business, the last three of which have been spent intensively studying, reflecting on, and writing about the critical role of beliefs in the businesses and organizations of which we’re a part. The fruits of that labor are now available in this new 600-page book. We could tell you more about what's in the book but we think John U. Bacon, author of the New York Times' bestseller, Endzone: The Rise, Fall and Return of Michigan Football, said it better than we ever could! “Some business leaders know practice. Some know theory. Ari Weinzweig is one of the few who knows both. He has built a famously successful organization, while giving it more thought than do the business gurus who merely philosophize about such things. The insights Ari shares here are both deeply perceptive and highly practical, from the ideas of Howard Zinn, Viktor Frankl and Anais Nin on one page, to the importance of learning your employees’ names on the next. Like its author, this book is uncommonly smart, helpful, and just plain fun.”

DOWNLOAD EBOOKOur most revered heroes, such as Jesus, Gandhi and Martin Luther King, distinguished themselves by their ability to remain true to themselves even when facing adversity. Whenever we exhibit this kind of integrity we feel like our own hero, writes Dr. Jordan Paul in his latest book, BECOMING YOUR OWN HERO. It is available to us all but, he adds, even our inspirational heroes usually have not shown us the way to apply this principle in our close interpersonal relationships. Now, Dr. Paul, co-author of the national best-seller, Do I Have to Give Up Me to Be Loved by You?, fills this gap. By showing us how to respond to difficulties in ways that do not compromise our own integrity or that of others, he provides a guide to finding greater fulfillment in relationships with ourselves, significant others, children, friends, and co-workers.
